What to specify

Hygienic finishes. Smooth, cleanable finishes chosen to meet your hygiene and audit standards.
Tight seals. The leaf pulls in against its gaskets on closing so cold air stays where it belongs.
Inside release. An emergency release on the inside face so nobody can be shut in.
Impact protection. Protection around the opening helps stop forklifts damaging expensive insulated leaves.
Pressure relief. We check pressure relief so a tightly sealed room does not suck the door shut.

Jobs we can carry out

Motorising a heavy manual cold store door with pull-cord activation, a safety edge on the closing leaf and photocells.
Fitting freezer-grade PVC strip curtains behind cold store doors that stand open during loading.
Fitting a hinged chiller door with a stainless steel finish to a walk-in cold room in a commercial kitchen.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Newcastle-under-Lyme are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.

Planning the work around your site

Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Your questions about cold store and freezer doors

What safety release do cold store doors in Newcastle-under-Lyme need?

Every cold store door should open from inside without a key or tool, even when locked from outside. We fit a clearly marked inside release and can add an alarm button connected to a monitored panel.

Why is our cold room door in Newcastle-under-Lyme hard to open after it closes?

Usually negative pressure: air inside cools and contracts once the door seals. A correctly sized pressure relief valve, heated on freezers, solves this. We check for one on survey and can fit it with a new door.

Do you supply cold store doors for food businesses in Staffordshire?

Yes. We supply and fit cold store doors with hygienic finishes for food producers, processors, distributors and commercial kitchens across Staffordshire, and we talk through your hygiene, cleaning and audit requirements at the survey before recommending a finish.
